Buying a Great Crib

A high-quality crib is essential for any nursery. Parents are looking for cribs that meet the strictest safety standards.

They also want one that looks stylish and is easy to put together. It is also essential to determine whether the bed comes with multiple mattress heights and if it is able to be converted into a daybed or toddler.

Aesthetics

The best cribs have a style that complements the decor of your nursery. They also feature a timeless style that won't change as your baby grows older. While some might prefer a contemporary design while others might prefer something more traditional. You can pick from a variety of different finishes and colors that will match the style of your nursery. Some cribs come with additional features that make them stand out from other cribs.

For instance, the Evolur is made of a breathable mesh that increases the airflow cots and tots breathability. Parents reported that the Evolur helped keep their children at a comfortable temperature for bedtime and naps. It also has six mattress height options to meet different preferences for sleeping. It can be slanted to help with colic and reflux. Its minimalist design makes it an ideal option for smaller nurseries. However it's more expensive than other alternatives.

The DaVinci Jayden is a stylish crib. This solid wood crib GreenGuard Gold Certified and can be converted into an infant bed, daybed, or a headboard with the purchase of separate conversion kits.

The Stokke Sleepi Bed offers another option that is flexible. It can be used for an infant crib, bassinet or a toddler bed. The circular shape creates an environment similar to a womb for your baby. It is also easy to move as it is equipped with wheels and a shorter width.

However, it's more expensive than other cribs and requires an additional toddler conversion kit. It's a lot of exposed hardware that some parents might find distracting.

Safety

It is essential to consider the safety of a crib when purchasing one. While it may appear to be a bit trivial but every aspect of the crib's design must be designed with safety in mind. For example, the slats should not be greater than 3/8 inches apart (about the size of a soda bottle) or the corners should not be higher than the top rail of the mattress support. There should be no decorative cutouts which could cause a baby to be entangled or get their arms trapped. It is best to opt for products that are new and meet current safety standards, however if you must utilize second-hand equipment, make sure it's not been recalled and adheres to all guidelines of the manufacturer.

Be sure to send in the registration card for the product, which often comes with cribs and other baby gear to be informed in the event of a recall. It is also an excellent idea to be aware of cardiopulmonary reperfusion (CPR) and the Heimlich maneuver in case of emergency.

When selecting a crib for your baby, avoid placing soft toys or other objects in the crib. They can cause suffocation to an infant and increase the risk of SIDS. In the same way cribs should not be surrounded by any bumpers or pillows, which can lead to death by suffocation.

In the end, you should pick cribs that have two or four height settings. You can lower the mattress to keep your child from escaping their crib or injuring themselves if they fall when trying to stand or crawl. The mattress support is generally set at the highest point for babies. However it is recommended to lower it as your child grows.

It's also a good idea to examine the crib on a regular basis for any broken or loose metal hardware. Bolts and nail can get loose with time. It is essential to inspect them on a regular basis.

Simple Assembly

The easiest cribs to assemble are those that have frame-and-panel construction for the three sides of the crib and bars on the front. This design is easy to put together and doesn't require a complicated joinery. If you're a DIYer this crib model can be painted or stain. When assembling a crib it is essential to follow the directions. You could put your baby's life at risk if you miss one step. The majority of cribs you buy will come with a set of instructions however, it's worth doing a quick search on the internet to find out more information about the specific crib you're using.

When selecting a crib, it is crucial to think about how easily the crib can be moved. Most cribs are too big to fit through doors which is why you'll need to disassemble it in order to move it from one location in your home to another. This can be a headache and can lead to frustration, especially when you're in a rush to get your baby to sleep.

If you're on the hunt for cribs that can be easily moved, consider one with wheels or a stand. These options will make it much easier to move from room to room, and also keep the crib clean and safe.

Cost
